Parkway Converting to Windows PCs

March 2007

The Parkway Board of Education recently voted to convert most of the district's computers to a Windows PC platform. Currently, Parkway schools use both Windows PC and Macintosh computers. The conversion to a single platform will improve file sharing among students and staff, help Parkway's computers operate more efficiently on the network, and also reduce costs required to effectively support two computer platforms. The transition would be phased in over three years, starting with Parkway high schools in the 2007-08 school year, middle schools in 2008-09 and elementary schools in 2009-10.
